Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rim for a cycle wheel, and a method of manufacturing such a rim.
  • a ring wheel rim is annular in shape and has a U-shaped radial section, with two lateral flanks which are generally perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the wheel and a bridge which connects the lateral flanks and which is turned next to the axis of rotation of the wheel.
  • the spokes are generally attached to the rim deck.
  • a rim for a cycle wheel To manufacture a rim for a cycle wheel, it is known to produce a rectilinear profile by extrusion or spinning of a metal alloy, for example an aluminum alloy, and then to bend the profile to give it an annular shape. The ends of the rim are then connected, for example by welding.
  • WO 2005/108120 describes a rim thus obtained.
  • This document also describes a method for producing the attachment zones of the beams which consists in selectively machining a rib so as to keep only a few projecting projections.
  • too thin side walls also cause bending local buckling of the walls of the profile under compression deformation too high.
  • the document FR-A-2,727,355 proposes to manufacture a rim by extruding a rectilinear profile having a sufficient thickness so that the extrusion does not cause defects in the material. The profile is then bent and its thickness allows it to not deteriorate and not flambé. To reduce the weight of the rim, it is then immersed in an aggressive chemical bath that attacks the material and decreases its thickness. This manufacturing process is relatively laborious to implement and the surface condition becomes certainly homogeneous but quite rough.
  • the document US-A-6,961,999 proposes to extrude and bend a section thick enough not to cause manufacturing defects.
  • the side flanks of the rim are then machined to reduce their thickness and reduce the weight of the rim.
  • the document EP-A-0 579 525 also proposes to machine the lateral flanks of the rim after extrusion and bending of the profile. The reduction of the weight of the rim is not optimal because the bridge of the rim retains its initial thickness.
  • the document EP 0 579 525 discloses a rim manufacturing method according to the preamble of claim 1. It is these drawbacks that the invention more particularly intends to remedy by proposing a rim for a cycle wheel and a method of manufacturing such a rim, allowing to reduce the weight of the rim while obtaining optimized rigidity.
  • the rim according to the invention is quick to manufacture and the manufacturing method avoids the appearance of defects during the extrusion of the profile and its bending.
  • the life of the rims is often limited by the appearance of cracks in the zone of attachment of the rays. As soon as they appear, these cracks propagate very rapidly in the spinning direction, causing the bridge to rupture very quickly.
  • This well-known fatigue phenomenon is, on the one hand, due to the numerous loading cycles that the spokes undergo at each turn of the wheel and, on the other hand, is also accelerated by small superficial defects which are generally longitudinal striations caused. by the friction of the metal in the die during the spinning operation.
  • the invention therefore also aims to optimize the fatigue strength of the rim by locally reinforcing the grip of the spoke, but also by improving the surface to cancel or delay the initiation of fatigue cracks.
  • the machining step serves both to deburr the periphery of the radius attachment holes, to improve the surface condition in the vicinity of the fixing holes and between the latter, and to limit the risks. related to the development of fatigue crack.
  • the outer surface of the bridge is integrally machined all around the circumference.
  • the entire outer surface of the rim is machined in a radial plane over at least part of the circumference.
  • the machining will be on the entire circumference of the rim. In other embodiments not detailed below which are also provided within the scope of the invention, machining is performed on almost the entire circumference. In this case, at least 95% or even 97% of the circumference is machined.
  • care will be taken that all the radius attachment zones are.
  • both the side flanks and the bridge of the rim are machined simultaneously.
  • the manufacture is easier and faster, and the weight of the rim is reduced.
  • the machining improves the surface condition of the bridge and the flanks by eliminating the defects resulting from the extrusion of the profile or the bending, which improves the holding resistance. tired.
  • the aerodynamics of the rim is optimized because the simultaneous machining of the bridge and sidewall avoids the formation of edges between the bridge and the sidewalls.
  • This manufacturing process is standardized, that is to say that it is possible to easily manufacture rims of different geometry from the same profile, without the need to modify the tooling provided for extrusion, bending and machining. For example, for the manufacture of a range of rims, it is conceivable to manufacture different front and rear wheel rims from the same profile and with the same machining tools.
  • Fatigue cracks usually appear at the rim deck, around the attachment areas of the spokes. If it turns out that a rim made by such a process is not strong enough, it is possible to easily increase the thickness of the rim bridge, at least at certain areas of the circumference of the rim. rim, retaining the initial tooling and varying the geometrical parameters of the machining. For example, if the rim is machined with a concave profile cutter, simply shift the cutter towards the axis of rotation of the rim to increase the thickness of its walls. Thus, the development costs of the rim are reduced.

  • the web 4a has tractor spokes 4a2, which pull on the rim 3 when the cyclist pedal, and non-tractors 4a1 spokes or pushing spokes, which tend to relax when the cyclist pedal.
  • the web 4a is driving, its spokes 4a1 and 4a2 are hung on the side of the hub body 21 which carries the freewheel mechanism 22 and which receives the engine torque resulting from the pedaling effort of the cyclist. On the contrary, the sheet 4b is conducted.
